Our program for 2008 is to repair schools in Senegal and purchase school supplies for underprivileged children. We will allocate 80% of the funds raised to repair some schools and 20% to buy school supplies. Our research indicates that the average child needs $30.00 for all of his/her school supplies for each school year. (100% of your generous donation will be allocated to this program).

Project of Ndrame Escale Elementary School

Ndrame Escale Elementary School is located at Wack Ngouma, Nioro du Rip, Kaolack, Senegal. This school was built in 1957. It has 12 classes, 16 teachers, 494 students, 1 toilette, and 1 kitchen where volunteers cook lunch for students who can not go home for lunch and contribute financially. Because of the lack of resources 12.02% drop out and only 30.55% of the students graduate. These children need us to keep their dreams alive and have a chance like many children across the globe.
